Warm wishes: 16-year-old Manja realizes her dream vacation!

Föhr, Deutschland - The Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB) has created an exciting opportunity to fulfill their last heart wishes with its “Wünswagen” project. An impressive example comes from the North Frisian island of Föhr, where 16-year-old Manja (name changed) enjoyed an unforgettable stay with her aunt and her mom. How moin.de , Manja fulfilled her long-cherished wish for a last vacation on the North Sea, implemented by a wish car from Ludwigsburg.

The desiration enables seriously ill people to travel to their desired locations and experience special moments with their loved ones. It is equipped with the latest emergency medical equipment to ensure security during the trip. In Ludwigsburg, too, the volunteer "wish fountain" are active-every year over 2,000 wishes are fulfilled, financed by donations and the commitment of volunteers, so fluegelt-von.de .

The trip to Föhr

Manjas trip was wonderful, but not without challenges. After a one -week, eventful time, the team asked for support from their Hamburg colleagues for the return trip. This was severely impaired by traffic chaos, traffic jams and even closures, such as the Elbe tunnel blocking, which led to hours of delays. Despite these adversities, Manja felt fulfilled and happy when she was handed over to the desired fountain from Ludwigsburg, at the end of a trip that meant a lot.

a special day for Gisela

Another touching example is the 69-year-old Gisela, who was never before at the sea. Despite the difficult fate that she suffered during the Corona pandemic, she could not be discouraged. Your greatest wish: travel to the North Sea. Thanks to the ASB trolley in Lower Saxony and supporters such as the Peine Palliative Network, this wish became a reality. Gisela was accompanied by volunteers who made sure that she was able to spend a carefree day in Cuxhaven, where she was even able to experience ship watching as the highlight of her trip, reports Derwesten.de .

Your excursion, which only lasted five hours, was possibly the first and last visit to the sea, but the memories will remain forever. Gisela enjoyed feeling the sun on her face and deeply breathed in the salty air, while enjoying a delicious currywurst with fries and a sauce ice cream. Such moments are invaluable for many people who fight with serious illnesses.

A look into the future

The ASB project "Wünswagen" was launched in 2014 and is now active in all federal states. In addition to fulfilling wishes such as a visit to a zoo or on parental farms, the community and cohesion are also strengthened in these emotional times. The helpers - doctors, nurses and volunteers - work hand in hand to give these people permanent memories. In Brandenburg, too, the wish car has fulfilled over 100 wishes and enjoys steadily growing support from society.

whether manja or Gisela, who show stories how valuable it is to take care of the heart's wishes and to give them joy in difficult times. It is up to all of us to make the initiative "Wunschwagen" known and hopefully more people to give a bit of luck.
